GLORIOUS PAIN.

The Authors of Pain versus The Revival is a real bucket list match for me.

We’re getting closer and closer to Orlando as we’re….well we’re still in Orlando but it’s not the big show yet. Tonight’s big deal is a triple threat match for the #1 contendership to the Women’ Title as Asuka is in need of some more competition. It’s hard to say what else we’ve got coming up around here and that’s a good thing as you could be in for a good surprise. Let’s get to it.

It’s the final night of the taping cycle and we’ve got a big title match to send us out. This time around it’s the Authors of Pain defending the Tag Team Titles against the former champions DIY. These teams had a surprisingly good match back at Takeover: San Antonio so maybe they can pull it off again here. Let’s get to it.

We’re on the road again and that means we’re getting closer to heading back to Orlando for the next Takeover. None of the card is announced yet but with four shows left, you can imagine how fast that’s going to change. We’re also a week away from Bobby Roode defending the NXT Title against Kassius Ohno. Let’s get to it.

Just A Nice Match

 

[@smarkmouth]

Curious as to what the concensus about the current announce team is. I feel like Watson is cancelling out McGuiness, leaving me all alone with Tom Phillips.

 

[klunderbunker]

Watson is worthless. I have no idea why he's there.

 

[Richard Blonoff]

I feel like WWE just wants to have a token on each announce team. Raw, Smackdown, NXT, all have the one black guy and they are all awful.

 

[Papa Pillman]

Protect your face.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Was that the same venue they were in last time they went to UCF? It looked very different....maybe it was just configured different with a curtain? Or maybe it was a smaller venue on campus?

In any case, it was perfect venue size for what I envision NXT to be in every week.

The 3 man booth set up that WWE seems to love is ******ed

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Damn fine little match between Nak and TJP. Probably Nak's 3rd best match since coming to WWE.

I spend a great part of my day thinking of insanely douchey things a pretty-boy coward heel TJP could do.

One can dream.

 

[@smarkmouth]

One thing would be denying the crowd his music. I'm a sucker for a good chip-tune.

 

[ShinChan]

I still love TJ Perkins because he's a damn good wrestler.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Not necessarily.


Agreed that it's a great tune

One can dream.

That's just the move needed to make me care about TJP. I was sure they were gonna go that route when Swann was pushing for the strap.

It’s title time and that means we’re going to know who is heading to the main event of Takeover: Orlando. Tonight Bobby Roode puts the NXT Title on the line against Kassius Ohno with the winner facing Shinsuke Nakamura for the title at the big show. This has some serious potential so let’s get to it.

It Makes Sense For Once

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Ohno looks fucking ridiculous

 

[@smarkmouth]

I've never been bothered by wrestlers physiques, especially if they can work a good match. Hero can do that. But the outfit is designed to mask his physique and it fails at doing so spectacularly. It may as well be a flashing neon sign reading "Don't look!"

 

[Richard Blonoff]

Yeah, my girlfriend actually stopped to watch because he was so tubby and she wanted to comment on it. She was surprised by how athletic he was despite his appearance, but wear a fucking singlet.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Its not really the dad bod I'm on about, but it certainly is an aspect of it.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I thought I'd clicked on the wrong page and we were talking about Bull Dempsey.
